I find those reefers with graphics to be among the most appealing freight cars!

Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. Say no more! Say no more!
You know what they say, "A wink is as good as a nod to a blind bat!".

It's a Stewart-Lundahl kit car that I recognized on eBay and scooped up for a good price. The other car in the lot was a victim to poor packing and USPS brutality - there was hole in the side of box. I might be able to reassemble that car with a bit of luck.

Tinplated steel - total scratch build -- actually cost me nothing - free. Best thing I can do with it is to salvage the trucks and couplers, and I can use the archbars. More than a little crude representation of a GLa hopper; maybe 17/64th's as well. Load is actually cardboard.
